The 1st ever HR Hackathon of its kind in Singapore bringing together leaders in HR innovation and development and aspiring young HR leaders of tomorrow will take place 13-14 July 2018, at the Singapore Institute of Management (http://www.simge.edu.sg/). Organised by the Singapore Human Resources Institute (SHRI) (http://www.shri.org.sg/), it offers students and young professionals a unique platform to develop an interest in HR and implement related solutions in the HR sector.

The theme “create, engage, innovate HR”, calls for practical and creative solutions with a problem-solutions fit to the chosen Challenge Statement given by Project Sponsor Organisations.

The world of work as we know it, is today, fast-evolving, with the lines between personal time and workspace blurring. This has vast impact across all aspects of human resource (HR) management as HR evolves rapidly in an increasingly volatile business environment, as evident in a new breed of ‘digital natives’ and ‘gig workers’ which were non-existent before.

SHRI HR HACKATHON 2018

WHY HR HACKATHON?

The SHRI HR Hackathon 2018 is

Designed to give students an opportunity to address real issues faced by HR via raising awareness of technology & innovation trends in the HR sector

An abridged version of ‘Hackathons’ modelled after the Startup Weekend and Google Ventures Sprint process

An updated version from SHRI flagship event - Singapore HR Challenge, in line with all the disruptive innovations and technology taking place today, be it at the workplace or school environment

Not restricted to ‘HR Tech’ challenges and solutions only

Brings together leaders in HR innovation and development, and young HR leaders of tomorrow, in a unique platform to think of ways to make HR better

With the updated format of the HR Challenge this year to that of a two-day Hackathon, we have in effect, a unique platform for Sponsor organisations to:

A. Cream off the crop

1) direct access to graduating cohorts/talents in HR, bringing together youth participants who may be interested in internship opportunities

2) Challenge Statement Sponsors will provide an ‘HR-related Challenge Statement’. Student participants will consult with you and choose the Challenge Statement that they wish to work on and present the prototype/solutions. Sponsor organisations can adopt the solutions/prototypes if they so wish.

B. Employer Branding

3) raise awareness and employer branding – the event is a unique platform to raise awareness of your brand and employer value proposition, in the minds of these future HR leaders

4) provide (1) mentorship during the event; raise awareness of your organisation's vision and mission as well as HR challenges via the “Challenge/Problem Statement” and engage them right from the beginning

5) crowdsource potential solutions – ‘Challenge Statement Sponsors’ may adopt the prototyped tech/HR solutions as pitched, if they so wish
